PennsylvaniaHot diggity!! 
The Bears are glad to hear that Bear Power is working! 
They are going to take a short break to charge up their "Bear Batteries" with some chocolate cookies and some root beer. They'll do it in shifts so the signal won't go down completely but there are 1,000 of them. That's a lot of cookies and root beer!
Your Bears could probably use some cookies and root beer themselves.
While you're at it, you should probably get yourself a treat too! Don't you think? 
My Teddy TalesI'm so glad to hear the news, He'll still be in my prayers. :hug: :pray:
Bubble Up Bears!Glad to hear things are looking better. 
Woodbury Park BearsHow wonderful that Roger is on the mend it amazes me how people can recover from such trauma I'm so happy to hear good news .
:hug: Raewyn
US Bears, cookies and root beer does sound good! Guess I could get me some sugar free root beer and I make chocolate chips cookies with no sugar! (diabetic)
PennsylvaniaFunny you should mention that. My wife, Melanie, has hypoglycemia. (Essentially reverse diabetes.) She can't eat sugar either. She gets "Hank's Premium Root Beer" from the grocery store. It comes in sugar free version. She bakes sugar free cookies using fructose.
The Bears all love her baking. We all could stand to take off a little bit of extra fluff around the middle.
But don't let the Bears have too much root beer! They get tipsy real quick! Before you know it you'll have a bunch of riled-up Bears on your hands! If you've ever seen 1,000 Bears all juiced up on root beer and raising caine, it's not a pretty sight!
Boechout, AntwerpWhoo Hoo ! That is splendid news, Lenora. :dance: :dance: :dance:
Apparently the brain has an amazing capacity to heal itself and to make new brain cells where they have been damaged (what they call "neurogenesis": the creation of new brain cells). So there is every hope that your son will make a good recovery, although I do believe that you will have to be patient and not expect miracles overnight.
We're still sending you and your family all our positive thoughts and big hugs ! :hug: :hug: :hug:
Peter & the bears

Yes Peter, I want overnight miracles! The doctor keeps telling me that it is going to take a lot of time. He said he will be in therapy at the hospital for about six months!
US Bears, I will ration out the root beer...
Pennsylvania:)
We had a couple of Bears who got tanked up. Yeah, they had great fun that night but they regretted it in the morning!
Lenora, I'm so pleased things are looking up for you all!

PennsylvaniaUPDATE:
Today Roger was very tired and just wanted to sleep. We got there right after they gave him his bath and I know that is tiring. His nurse said he spoke for the first time today. He said while he was bathing him he said "I hurt". I know he must hurt something awful but...he spoke! His first words since the accident!
His nurse said he spoke for the first time today.
Thanks for sharing this encouraging news!
